Abstract: A method and device are disclosed for calculating estimated time stamps ìt in video distribution apparatus, MPEG-2 program encoders, multiplexers, splicers. True times Yt of a data packet number t having the linear form: Yt = Yt-1 + Jt, Jt = Jt-1 + <t>t, with <t>t being a small perturbation relative to the linear relation between time and packet number. The true times of data packet number t are observed as: ot = Yt + <h>t, where <h>t is an observational error. The estimated time stamps are produced according to: ìt = ìt-1 +  beta t and such that the value of  beta t is made dependent on the exceeding by #ot - ìt-1 -  beta t-1 # of max[<h>t]. The results are accurate and smooth estimated time stamps.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un un organe de stabilisation de talus dans lequel un forage unique (4) comprend un organe d'ancrage au sol (7) et un organe de fixation dans le sol (18) comportant un élément résistant lié au coulis de ciment du forage sur la quasi-totalité de sa longueur. L'organe de stabilisation de talus présente l'avantage de permettre la précontrainte du sol au moyen dudit organe d'ancrage au sol (7). Toutefois, la zone active du sol (2) est également stabilisée par l'organe de fixation dans le sol (18), ce qui permet l'utilisation d'une structure avant (24) plus légère que la normale avec l'organe d'ancrage au sol. On peut ainsi réduire le nombre d'opérations étant donné que plusieurs articles sont compris dans un seul forage.

Abstract: Procédé servant à vérifier le joint d'un clapet d'obturation par introduction d'une bande d'essai dans la face de la partie glissement. On met en moyenne l'énergie thermique par positionnement de cette bande d'essai au milieu de la partie glissement. On applique le même adhésif sur la totalité des surfaces pendant la même durée dans le même environnement (à l'exception de la languette constituée par la bande d'essai qu'on empêchera d'adhérer mécaniquement ou chimiquement). L'élastomère préparé pour la gorge du  joint est identique et fait partie du même lot que celui de la bande d'essai, puis est posé au moyen du même agent collant par le même individu. La section transversale du joint est la même que la section transversale de la bande d'essai du joint. On exécute ensuite un dernier durcissement de la même manière sur le joint et sur la bande d'essai. Après refroidissement, on dégage la languette constituée par la bande d'essai (qu'on avait empêché d'adhérer mécaniquement ou chimiquement), on la place dans un dispositif de préhension et on lui applique une charge connue variable. On contrôle les allongements, ce qui permet de générer une courbe d'effort/contrainte servant à vérifier les propriétés du matériau. Après avoir exercé une autre traction jusqu'à la rupture, on vérifie l'adhérence de la gorge du joint. On peut ensuite vérifier par compression la languette d'essai qu'on vient d'enlever et on peut effectuer une variété d'autres essais. On peut produire des certificats matériels et quantitatifs pour chaque joint.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a mobile radiotelephone network (1). According to the invention, packet data units can be faultlessly exchanged when the connection is changed (700) between a mobile station (10) and higher-level network units (50, 55). The aim of the invention is to transmit packet data units. Transmission-specific information that describe a current state of the transmission is stored in the mobile station (10) and in a first network unit (50) which is of a higher-level than the first base station (25). The transmission-specific information stored in the first higher-level network unit (50) is transmitted to the second higher-level network unit (55) when the connection (700) of the mobile station (10) changes from the first base station (25) to a second base station (30) involving a second higher-level network unit (55), for continuing transmission in an essentially direct manner on the basis of the current state thereof after the connection has been changed.

IPC: C12Q1/6886
Filed: 2001-08-24
Abstract: A molecular marker-based method for monitoring and detecting cancer in humans. Aberrant methylation of gene promoters is a marker for cancer risk in humans. A two-stage, or 'nested' polymerase chain reaction method is disclosed for detecting methylated DNA sequences at sufficiently high levels of sensitivity to permit cancer screening in biological fluid samples, such as sputum, obtained non-invasively. The method is for detecting the aberrant methylation of the p16 gene, O 6 -methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase gene, Death-associated protein kinase gene, RAS-associated family 1 gene, or other gene promoters. The method offers a potentially powerful approach to population-based screening for the detection of lung and other cancers.
